Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: SC00P on May 28, 2014, 06:41:09 PM Great score, looks like all the hard work has been done with the V6, the numbers say it was the 2519th FC manufactured in Adelaide and has fall red & black trim and is painted in (high gloss) black. Thanks for the info Jim :)Regards Jim Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: TTV6FC on May 28, 2014, 09:37:35 PM Nice,same paint and trim as mine.Good luck with the tidy up then enjoy!Jamie.
Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: SC00P on May 29, 2014, 08:26:29 PM Cheers Jamie. Loving the black :)!!
Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: FireKraka on May 30, 2014, 04:23:21 PM Welcome Scoops and congratulations on the score it has taken me quite a long time to get to that point as one of the guys said looks like all the hard work is done.
Regards Neil H Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: mcl1959 on May 30, 2014, 06:14:10 PM I was talking about rare colour combos on another thread. Whilst black 225's aren't especially rare (I have about 25 listed) your 2 are the only 2 FC's in black that were made at Adelaide. Scoops is the early one with 627 trim code and Jamie's is a late one with the 846 trim code. Both 627 and 846 are Fall red and black. So in there own little way both cars are very unique code wise.
Isn't it amazing what absolute trivia of no use to anyone I can pull out of this database ::) :P Ken Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: TTV6FC on May 30, 2014, 07:07:45 PM Hey Ken,whilst you may think it is of no use it is still very interesting.Well is to me at least.I commend you on your ongoing effort to collate these details.Cheers,Jamie
Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: SC00P on June 01, 2014, 07:43:32 PM Cheers Neil and awesome info there Ken!!
Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: SC00P on June 09, 2014, 07:43:54 PM All clean now and tucked away. Hopefully get the V8 donor car next week.

Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: SC00P on July 07, 2014, 07:18:14 PM Unless i missed it , i didnt see any chassis strengthening in the underside shots ? Yes mate that's on the list as well.Cheers. Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: FCOV6 on July 07, 2014, 07:56:08 PM Yes mate that's on the list as well. Cheers. I'm surprised it passed inspection without any strengthening, it was registered when you got it ?

Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: fcwrangler on October 06, 2014, 11:16:56 PM Might be getting the exhaust from the same place as Pete!
Jim Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: FCRB26 on October 07, 2014, 04:55:29 PM I just dropped the torana off to get the exhaust re done at petes today.
Newcastle exhaust is 1 min from your work. Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: SC00P on October 07, 2014, 08:32:31 PM Yeh Pete, just cost wise its 680 odd for through guards thinking lots more than that custom made block huggers...
Trying to do best build I can to my budget. Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: NES304 on October 08, 2014, 06:04:43 AM Trying to do best build I can to my budget. Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: FC 304 wannabe on October 08, 2014, 05:10:07 PM Build your own headers ;)
Takes a while. .. but you get what you want .. Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: FCV08 on October 09, 2014, 10:49:32 PM I'm with you NES.
BLOCK HUGGERS are the best option. ;) Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: fcwrangler on October 10, 2014, 07:26:43 AM Have a look at Pete's site FC Ute (ifnot already) you can see how well the system fits. Cost is a big factor, but if you can stretch it, this would be the way to go.
Regards Jim Title: Re: SC00PS FC Post by: NES304 on December 04, 2014, 09:55:41 PM Unreal progress over the last week mate!!! :D
